About the digital security code

This cordless telephone uses a digital security code
to prevent unauthorized access to your base unit.
This security code prevents other cordless handsets
from making calls through your base unit.
A random security code will be assigned
automatically between your base unit and handset
when you charge the battery pack for the
first time.

If you want to reset the security code, see page 44.
